Job description

Team Member – Smoothie King | Sankofa Smoothies | Part-Time | Pay $16–26/hr

THIS ISN'T JUST A SHIFT — IT'S A LAUNCHPAD.

You start with a pledge and a purpose. Before long, you're the one others look to. That's how we operate.

Sankofa Smoothies is a top 2% Smoothie King franchise — the #1 operator in the state and a Certified Training Store. Sankofa is personally led by Josh Martin — former 7-year NFL pro and principal owner — who builds teams the same way he played: with discipline, accountability, and a will to win. Josh is hands-on in the business and invested in every person on this team. We promote from within. We pay based on performance. We move fast.

We're not just looking to fill a role. We're looking for people who make us better — every shift, every interaction, every season.

Now hiring for Northfield & DTC locations.

IS THIS THE RIGHT FIT?

This role IS for you if:

You show up — on time, every shift, no excuses.
You thrive when the pace is fast and the standards are high.
You want to earn more by learning more — not just by waiting.
You bring something to the team that wasn't there before you arrived.
You're coachable and actively make the people around you better.
Weekend and holiday availability is something you can commit to.

This role is NOT for you if:

You need a slow pace or minimal accountability.
Consistent weekends and holidays are a problem for your schedule.
You're just between things and need something temporary.
Detailed food safety standards feel like overkill.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:

Clean — Keep every station shift-ready. Cleanliness is how we respect guests and each other.
Prep — Execute prep charts accurately. A well-prepped store is a fast store.
Blend — Make every smoothie to recipe, fast and right. Target: smoothie on the blender in 60 seconds.
Serve — Greet every guest within 5–10 seconds. Find out what they're going for — energy, recovery, weight management — and build the right smoothie for them. Every order is a chance to make their day better.

You'll also handle POS transactions, follow food safety standards without exception, and communicate clearly with your team throughout every shift.

WHAT WE EXPECT:

Must-Haves:

At least 16 years old.
Weekend and holiday availability — required, not preferred.
Reliable attendance — zero unexcused absences is the standard.
Able to stand for extended periods and lift up to 50 lbs.

What Sets Top Candidates Apart:

You raise the bar — for yourself and the people working alongside you.
Self-starter — you see what needs doing and you handle it.
Competitive mindset — you want to beat your numbers, not just meet them.
Coachable — you treat feedback as fuel, not criticism.
Prior guest service or food service experience (preferred, not required).

WHAT YOU'LL EARN — THE PLEDGE PROGRAM:

PLEDGE stands for Pursue, Learn, Elevate, Deliver, Grow, Excel. Your pay grows as your skills do — no waiting for an annual review.

TM0 → Base pay (Day 1).
TM1 → +$1.00/hr (Written test, Week 4).
TM2 → +$0.50/hr (Practical skills test, Week 8).
TM3 → +$0.50/hr (ServSafe certification, Week 12).
TM4 → +$1.00/hr (Advanced test, after TM3 — open to anyone).

Total possible: +$3.00/hr above base pay.

Fast-Start Bonus: Pass TM1 at 90%+ before Day 30 and earn an extra $100 on top of your raise. Miss the window and you still get the raise — but the bonus is gone. The clock starts Day 1.

Pay adjustments take effect the following pay period after each level is completed and verified.

BENEFITS & PERKS:

Free smoothie every shift.
30% employee discount.
401(k) with match.
PTO — up to 2 paid weeks per year.
Paid training.
Referral bonuses.
Flexible scheduling — we build your schedule around your availability.
Real growth path — Team Member → Shift Manager → Trainer → Senior Management.

SCHEDULE & AVAILABILITY:

Shifts: Open (6:30a–12p), Mid (11a–5p), Closing (4p–10p).
Sunday Shifts: Open (9:30a–4p), Closing (3p–9p).
Days: Monday–Sunday (weekend availability required).
Hours: Most TMs start at 20–25 hrs/week with room to grow.

HOW TO APPLY:

We hire for mindset and motivation — no smoothie experience needed. We'll teach you everything. But we'll be honest: we're selective. We'd rather have a smaller team that makes each other better than a full roster that's just getting by.
